South Star Spirits Highland 10 Year Old 2011

Highland - the first thing you need to know about the Highlands: they are vast. The Highland Line came about on whisky maps for tax reasons in 1784, when customs duties were set lower in the Highlands to encourage local farmers to register their stills. It didn’t work. But it has given us a range of incredible whiskies to drink. The Highland style is often heavier and slightly spicier than Speyside, but still sweet. Peat may feature, as some distilleries maintain older practices, but there is no one representative whisky for the Highlands. Like Scotland itself, embrace the diversity. 10-YEAR-OLD HIGHLAND SINGLE MALT SCOTCH WHISKY 10 X FIRST FILL HOGSHEADS VATTED NOSE: DRIED ORANGES WITH A WHIFF OF TOBACCO PALATE: THICK, NUTTY DARK CHOCOLATE FINISH: LONG, NUTTY & VERY CHEWY
